WHAT pity for all concerned that
there is anything in the country like
labor troubles. Strikes seldom do
good-it is rarely that the desired end
is attained, whether it be an increase
in wages or a decrease IN working
hours that is wanted. The only RENE
dy for such evils is for employers to
pay a reasonable price for the service
demanded. "The laborer is worthy
of his hire" and his pay should be
proportionate with the work done.
In that case we would not so often see
such news items as the following in
the prints:
"Forty shoe manufacturing establish
ments have shut down at Haverhill,
Mass, on account of labor troubles.
Three thousand employees are idle"

IAN INSCRIPTION.
"MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS. ,
By "The Southern Critic. !"

Gentle reader! Did you ever hear
the above expression used? Do you
know what it means? 1t certainly
means a great deal. But there are
lots of people in this wide world who
seem not to know its meaning, or to
know the value of giving heed to it.
10 mind ones own business generally,
includes letting other peoples business
alone.
1t seems to be a peculiarly of hui
man nature for some people to be al
ways meddlng with other peoples
business. There may be several reas-
ons for this. One is, that some folks
haven't much business of their own to
mind, and others meddle with their
nelghbor's business some times, to get
an unjust advantage of him, and some
times they do it out of spirit of pure
"Cussedness."
Winding ones business and letting
other peoples business alone, is strict
ly legitimate, and honorable, and pays
handsome dividends on the investment:
IN tact men have been known to make
fortunes and die happy by minding
their own business. And yet there
are people, who are continually med
ding and interfering with other peo-
pies business in unfair, underhanded
ways. Some people seem to have plen-
ty of time on their hands for this sort
OF thing, always trying to take or gain
an undue advantage over their neigh
Dor one way or another.
We have always found that we had
our hands full minding our own bust |
ness. "Mind your own business" is |
maxim that could be studied with
Proht by a great many people, especial
ly by the editors of the Greensboro |
N01H State to whom these lines are
traternally inscribed.

AN UNWARRANTED ATTACK

While we endorse our contemDorarv
the Greensboro North State, in what
1t has to say IN regard to Northern
"advertlslng sharks" yet we must
strenuously condemn what we deem
an unWarranted attack upon an hon
orable enterprise. If our brethren of
the N01A State have never seen the
scholarly penstrokes of Mr.. A. Ros-
cover, or the high compliments paid
him, now and then, by our State press,
we think that they are somewhat of a
Grip Van Wrinkle" pattern, when adj
dressing him as ''some man." His
name as fluent writer is too we'll
known to require our comments or en-
dorsements. Literary Chat" if our
recollection serve us right, was started
year ago for the sole aim and Dur
pose to stimulate, encourage, and de-
veIop literary talent in the South, and
TO AID such writer's as are proven wor
thy to gam recognition in the world
of letters.
During the past year we have noted
the names of many Southern writer's
ranking prominently upon the list of
authors, which only could have been
accomplished through the literary
enterprise of Mr.. Roscower. If our
contemporary is DESTROYS of knowing
their names, We will cheerfully furnish
them. In every instance, we know Of

mess, So we learn from the Register
In the first place, # the merchant
has the ready cash in hand, he can
buy his stock cheaper than when he
| buys on time. If he buys cheaper, he
can sell cheaper and the customer
gets the benefit OF the discount.
Again, if he sells for cash, he does
not have to employ collectors and this
reduction in expenses will enable him
to reduce prices and all the time the
customer gets the benefit OF the reduc-
ton.
Again, if he sells for cash he has no
bad bills and does not have to charge
up anything to profit and loss; and it
Is evident that if no money is lost the
merchant can sell cheaper than when
large part of his profits must go to
cover losses from bad bills. Please
observe that the customer all the time
gets the benefit of the reduced prices.
Thus it is clearly seen that the mer-
chant is better off if he sells for cash,
and there can be no questions that
the customer saves the difference in
cash and time prices. But there are
other advantages to the cash purchaser.
He does not buy as much when he
pays the cash as when he runs an &C
count Every man who has tried both
plans knows this to be true. It issuch

Moreover, as we have said above, he
can buy cheaper with the money in

ABOUT BASE BALL.

Interest in the "National game
does seem to be losing its hold upon
the public mind in the North and
West, although it may have died out
to some extent in the South. And this
leads us to few reflections on this
subject. Base ball is good thing in
ITS way. 1t is healthy sort of amuse-
ment, and as long as it is kept out of
the hands of those who would ike to
use it IN an improper way for making
money there can be no particular OBJ
lection to it. But even a healthy and
harmless amusement may not be with
out its drawbacks. Too much of it
may be demoralizing, and there are
indications that we are having too
much base ball for the good of young
men and boys who haven't either the
money or the time to enable them to
: crafty their appreciation of the game
Employers in many cases find it
difficult to get their employees to give
proper attention to their duties. The
minds of youths especially are SO
wholly taken up with base ball matters
that their services in many cases are
almost valueless. Neglect of duty is
not the whole Of the demorlization
that is noticeable. Young men who
have small incomes are often forced
to make debts, and to put off paying
overdue bills, in order to meet the base
ball demand upon their purses. Of!
Course this demand is not heavy in the
estimation of those who have well-illed
purses, but there are many, very MANY,
among those who make it a point to
witness every game who frequently
lind some difficulty in getting the
necessary admission fee.
We haven't anything to say against
the game, or the way that it is con-
Quoted, but people who think about
such things can hardly fail to see that
base ball players in three or four
months can earn more than the best ,
teacher in the public schools. more
than college professors and even more
than the average professional man in a .
year. Too many of the boys and ,
young men of the country have their
drawn away from the oc-
equations in which they are earning =
their living and directed towards the
career of base ball player Ofcourse, E
here is only limited demand for
good players and hundreds of young
men who are neglecting their duties P
or base ball are only preparing them B
elves for an idle and prohtless life. fl

for granted that the man who will
do only $40 worth of work q week
because his salary is but SEQ will
never get moro than 500 a week. for
the simple reason that he has never
shown his employer that he is worth

who means to succeed has to DO from
20 to 20 per cent more work than
he gets actual pay for. This he has
TO do until he reaches q certain

do $40 worth of work; and so on

deceased Marshal. The statute re.
qnired that she should give bond In
the sum Of $4,000, and take the
oath of Office before the clerk Of the
Court. He did not observe Miss
Couzins in Court, and would say
that as COD as she could furnish the
bond she could qualify aud at once
enter upon the duties of the Office.
